Q: LSIL PAP smear
asked by: amber♥ on April 3rd, 2008
New User
So I went to my doctors appointment to get the results of my pap smear, and they said it was abnormal. It came back for LSIL (low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion). It is a precancerous condition of the cervix. 2-3% of all Pap tests result in a diagnosis of LSIL. There is 5 classes of it.

Class I- Normal

Class II- Mild dysplasia

Class III- Moderate dysplasia

Class IV- Severe dyslasia

Class V- Cancer of the cervx.

Luckily, I'm only in class II. My doctor said it could of been that I had had a yeast infection, and it might of triggered the test. They gave me a prescription for a vaginal cream called clindesse. Has this happened to anyone else?

Edit* I got to hear the baby's heartbeat, and see it move around. My doctor said "It looks like it's trying to ride a bike"

HPV- human papoloma virus [spelling??] its the number 1 cause of cervical cancer.. that is why they have a vaccination for it now [[hey speaking of that i need my 2nd shot of that]] my sister has it... it can cause a few complications ... but it is a sexually transmited disease that sometimes is completely invisible as in my sisters case. she had no clue she had it untill she got tested... the worst part is she got it because , well she was with her husband since they were 15 ... but when they were 22 they got engaged... well since they have ONLY dated eachother they had some rough times and decided they needed to date other people, so they broke off the engagement... he slept with a few girls and got hpv, then gave it to my sister when they got back together... she was quite p!ssed

Low grade cell changes on your cervix will not make you infertile. In fact, your miscarriage was not due to LSIL. Early miscarriages are most often because of chromosomal abnormalities at a microscopic cellular level. There would have been nothing you could have done to prevent that. I'm sorry.

You do not still have LSIL because it was burned off your cervix. This shouldn't have anything to do with your pregnancy or your ability to get pregnant.

Good luck!

Gardasil protects you from cervical cancer (I'm pretty sure). My doctor advised me to get it BECAUSE I have HPV.

GARDASIL DO YOUR RESEARCH
Gardasil is BAD NEWS please don't get it, it has been reported to VAERS to have caused miscarriages, and multiple horrible side effects. Please research, it DOES NOT PROTECT you from cervical cancer, it only may help with 4 forms of HPV. It is not the only way you can get cervical cancer, which is treatable. PLEASE PLEASE Do your research independent of what MERCK is spewing. It has also had several deaths linked to it. Please do your research, read the blogs of the mothers caring for these sick girls. Don't just rely on what the paid entities are saying. It is scary.

LSIL
I have a LSIL and Mild Dysplasia (Type II) Which isnt terrible. There are 4 types. Also i have HPV (Which yes is a sexually transmitted disease but what they dont tell you is that if you have only been with one partner as i have you can still get it just being sexually active can trigger it.) And no, it doesn't affect having kids
